[(PPh₃)₄Pt₂S₂(SnCl)]⁺: A Pt‐Sn‐S Cluster with a Ternary Trigonal Bipyramidal Cluster Core

Abstract

By reaction of the organotin sulfide cluster [(R 1 Sn) 4 S 6 ] (A) [R 1 = CMe 2 CH 2 CMeN-N=CH(C 11 H 8 N 2 )] with [Pt(PPh 3 ) 2 Cl 2 ], a new heterobimetallic platinum-tin chalcogenide cluster was synthesized with a ternary, trigonal bipyramidal cluster core. The structure of

Introducing Distinct Structural and Optical Properties into Organotin Sulfide Clusters by the Attachment of Perylenyl and Corannulenyl Groups

“…By exploitation of the carbonyl group or a hydrazone group formed from it, a synthesis strategy involving mild reaction conditions can be applied, so that molecules with different functionalities can be covalently linked to the inorganic core. In this way, organotin sulfides with attached biomolecules, − chelating ligands for the trapping of metal ions, , and small organic and aromatic , ligands have been achieved. In addition, some compounds exhibiting distinct optical absorption and emission properties have been synthesized.…”

Variations in the Interplay of Intermetallic and Metal Chalcogenide Units in Organotin–Copper Selenide Clusters

“…Different synthetic approaches have been followed in order to gain access to new compositions and structures. We showed, in the past years, that an efficient strategy toward such clusters is the reaction of organo-functionalized binary precursors of the type [(RSn) 4 E 6 ] or [(RSn) 3 E 4 Cl] (R = organic ligand with a keto or a hydrazine group; E = S, Se) with transition-metal complexes, which yield organo-functionalized metal chalcogenide clusters with ternary inorganic cores. ,− …”
